Zipp 454 NSW Carbon Wheelset C1

The Zipp 454 NSW Carbon Wheelset C1 is a high-performance tubeless-ready wheelset engineered for road racing excellence. Its signature 58mm deep Sawtooth rim profile, featuring biomimetic Hyperfoils, delivers superior aerodynamic efficiency and unmatched stability in all wind conditions. Designed to maximize speed across varied terrain, this wheelset provides a distinct advantage for triathletes, time trialists, and road racers seeking the ultimate in technical performance.

Built with Zipp’s Total System Efficiency (TSE) technology, the 454 NSW is meticulously designed to combat the four main barriers to speed: wind resistance, gravity, rolling resistance, and vibration losses. The wider, hookless rim interface allows for the use of lower-pressure tubeless tyres, which significantly reduces rolling resistance and helps damp high-frequency vibrations. This design ensures that riders can maintain higher speeds with greater comfort and less fatigue.

At the heart of the wheelset are the ZR1 SL hubs, which feature premium ceramic bearings and 66 points of engagement for near-instant power transfer. These hubs ensure smooth, reliable performance and durability, providing a crisp response whether you are accelerating out of a corner or maintaining a steady pace during a time trial. This comprehensive wheelset combines cutting-edge carbon architecture with precision engineering to deliver maximum efficiency and speed for the most demanding competitive environments.
